The present technology relates to a wireless communication apparatus and a wireless communication method that make it possible to read necessary information even in a case where a physical header at a top portion of a signal transmitted from a base station of another BSS fails to be received and the signal is received from the middle. The wireless communication apparatus includes a communication section configured to generate and transmit an OFDM signal in which second information is superimposed in a frequency axis direction of the OFDM signal which includes first information destined for one or more subordinate client devices. The present technology can be applied to a wireless communication apparatus and so forth that perform wireless communication, for example, standardized by IEEE 802.11.

A method includes determining, by one or more processing entities associated with at least one of: one or more low voltage drive circuits (LVDCs) and one or more other LVDCs, an initial data conveyance scheme and an initial communication scheme for each communication of a plurality of communications on one or more lines of a bus. The method further includes determining a desired number of channels for each communication of the plurality of communications based on the initial data conveyance scheme and the initial communication scheme, a desired total number of channels for the plurality of communications based on the desired number of channels, determining whether the desired total number of channels for the plurality of communications exceeds a total number of available channels. If not, allocating the desired number of channels to each communication of the plurality of communications in accordance with the channel allocation mapping.

A communication apparatus, terminal apparatus, system and method are provided for performing wireless communication. The communication apparatus supports a plurality of component carriers, wherein one of the plurality of component carriers is designated as a current primary component and at least one of the plurality of component carriers is designated as a current secondary component carrier providing at least downlink communication. The communication apparatus comprises control circuitry for controlling a component carrier testing procedure for one or more component carriers. The testing procedure comprises, for each component carrier: establishing an uplink connection from the terminal apparatus to the communication apparatus using the component carrier; and determining a quality of the uplink connection for the component carrier. The control circuitry is responsive to completion of the testing procedure to designate an updated primary component carrier on the basis of the qualities of the uplink connections determined for the component carriers.

A method performed by a control network node for handling a radio resource in a frequency band. The control network node receives an indication related to a performance of a first radio network node or a performance of user equipment served by the first radio network node. The control network node further triggers a performance adjustment related to at least one radio network node of a number of radio network nodes or to the first the radio network node based on the indication.
